Highly deformed band inAg105

The isotope Ag-105 has been studied using 169.5 MeV Cl-37 ions impinging on Ge-76. The Nordball Ge array detected the gamma rays and a 4 pi charged particle detector system detected emitted light charged particles. A very deformed band has been established using Doppler shift attenuation methods. The analysis is based on the gamma gamma coincidences and the angular dependence of the four rings of Ge detectors in Nordball. The deformation of the band is deduced to be beta(2)=0.37(-0.02)(+0.03).
